Chateau De Nages


Roses abound. This post is actually from 5/3/13 but we never published it.... I can't imagine why...

Appearance: pink with very slow slight legs

Smell: grapefruit, gardenia, berries maybe raspberries and blueberries

Taste: mouthfeel is wooly and scratchy with a smoother finish, short taste, we don't taste much berry at all, there is a citrisy note, ginger, semi dry, blueberry/raspberry combo taste.

Pairings: The Swartzwelders had spaghetti with meat sauce.  Brit had overbaked cod.  The Hogans had pasta primavera.  Stay away from chocolate while drinking this wine.  Food definitely brings out the taste of this wine.  Cheese improves this wine without a doubt.  It doesn't really matter what kind of cheese: Gouda, Brie, cheddar, English, etc it all brings out the berry taste and makes the wine have a slightly smoother texture.
